Business Development Manager
Electronic Components / Technical Sales
Oxfordshire / Buckinghamshire / Bedfordshire / Northamptonshire
£45,000 – £55,000 basic + uncapped commission + company car
I’m working with a well-established European electronics manufacturer looking to hire a technically minded BDM to grow an established territory across the South Midlands.
This role would suit someone with a technical Sales background.
The position is heavily relationship and project focused — engaging with design engineers, technical teams, procurement, and manufacturing stakeholders to support projects from design stage through to production.
What the role involves:
• Managing and developing existing OEM and engineering accounts
• Identifying new business opportunities across manufacturing and industrial customers
• Selling consultatively into technical environments rather than transactional sales
• Supporting design-in/specification-led projects with long sales cycles
• Working closely with engineering and procurement teams to deliver tailored solutions
• Building long-term customer partnerships across the territory
What they’re looking for:
• Experience in technical B2B sales or engineering sales
• Background in electronic components, electromechanical products, automation, controls, sensors, connectors, or similar technical products
• Comfortable speaking with engineers and understanding technical applications
• Proven track record in business development and account growth
• Self-motivated and capable of managing a field-based territory
Why this role stands out:
• Established territory with existing customer relationships
• Strong technical product portfolio with genuine market demand
• Consultative sales environment with longer-term project work
• Supportive leadership team and realistic growth plans
• Good earning potential without aggressive micromanagement culture
• Opportunity to work with innovative engineering and manufacturing customers
